...group would eventually stop work at mid-morning for a custom as necessary as the coffee break or English four-o'clock tea: Zinacanteco nine-o'clock pozol. Sitting at the edge of the cornfield under the shade of an oak, the Indians wash their hands meticulously and rinse out their mouths with water. The men would then take out their pozol, a yellow ball of corn mash the shape of a pineapple, wrapped in green cornhusks.
